One thing I didn’t expect: some users told me the app makes them anxious, others say it’s the first time they actually finish tasks. That polarization itself has been interesting to observe.

I know one of their company's products, it's https://zsxq.com/. But it came out in 2015, and I've never tried any of their other stuff.

Slowly growing HeyForm into the complete open-source form solution, with AI integration coming soon.

It really depends on your expectation of the Product Hunt launch.

If your aim is to secure the #1 rank and attract thousands of users to discover your product-market fit, Product Hunt might not be the best platform for you.

However, if you're looking to find beta users for your MVP, Product Hunt can still be effective, but don't rely on it exclusively—use it as one of several channels.

As a daily active user on Product Hunt, I have seen some products rapidly gaining traction by ranking high, but not all top-ranked products will survive or succeed.

In a word, don't overestimate or underestimate it.

We've seen so many directory sites initially offered free services but eventually switched to paid models. Many of these sites vanished within a few months.

I hope you'll keep building and growing it to the best one that lasts long.

It's strange that our website is being blocked by an ISP.

Could you please provide us with the name of the ISP so that we can contact them and request to have the ban lifted?

We do, but this is not the main reason.

Both of us work part-time on HeyForm and are satisfied with the revenue it generates.

However, who wouldn't want to earn more? :D

You request it, we make it!

Please open an issue and let's discuss it further. With any luck, we can make it available in just a few weeks.

Thank you for sharing your experience and insights. It would be fantastic if we could collaborate to make HeyForm better suited to your needs, as well as the needs of many others.

> Would an integration with Nextcloud be considered?

We are definitely interested in exploring this possibility. However, since I am not personally familiar with Nextcloud, it would be helpful if you could provide more details. Could you please open an issue so that we can discuss it further?

It's to tap into global collaboration for faster innovation, and ensure transparency and trust.

Thanks for bringing up the good question!
